Probably not is the answer. Depends a lot on your room size but that's pretty low sensitivity. More impt that nominal impedence is minimum impedence. How big is the ss amp that you are using?
Tube amp vs. speakers
Hi all,
Considering jumping into tubes from solid state. My question is whether tubes will meet the power hungry speakers I intend to use, an elderly but pristine pair of Mirage M-1s. They are rated at a sensitivity of 83db and nominal 6 ohms and are more power hungry than a pair of Dunlavy SC-Vs I recently sold. I tend to listen to jazz and blues at fairly demanding levels at times. Will a 35 watt or 50 watt tube amp meet these requirements? Any suggestions or recommendations are greatly appreciated.
